Yummy Salad!

this salad was so good I have to post a recipe-

1/4 c.sugar (or splenda) and 3/4 c. slivered and blanched almonds mix together in a skillet over medium heat until sugar turns syrupy then lay them all out on wax paper set aside (I tripled this and then saved the others in ziplock baggies

in large bowl combine:

1/2 pound spinach1 large head of romaine chopped1 cup dried cranberries1/2 red onion sliced2 tsp. sesame seeds toasted (opt. and I didn't use these because I didn't have them and it was still great)break up the almonds once cooled and hardened and sprinkle on salad

in a bowl (I used a dressing bottle that I got from the grocery store to make dressing in)1 tbls. of poppy seed1/2 c.sugar or splenda2 tsp. chopped onion (really fine I did it in the chopper)1/4 tsp. paprika1/4 c. white wine vinegar1/4 c. apple cider vinegar1/4 c. vegetable oilmix and toss in salad right before serving.oh and sliced strawberries if you chose which is sooo yummy!
